Common questions

Is Lara Logan left or right?
Logan is a former mainstream war correspondent who now operates as an independent media figure on the populist, Trump-aligned right. She spent 2002-2018 at CBS News as Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent and a 60 Minutes contributor, then hosted 'Lara Logan Has No Agenda' on Fox Nation from 2020 until the show ended after she compared Dr. Anthony Fauci to Nazi doctor Josef Mengele in November 2021; Newsmax separately barred her in October 2022, citing on-air remarks it called reprehensible. Since June 2022 she has sat on the board of America's Future, a conservative nonprofit chaired by Michael Flynn, and she now hosts the independent 'Going Rogue' podcast, framing her work as challenging mainstream narratives and exposing elite corruption. She has reappeared in Trump-era institutional and movement settings, speaking at a public State Department listening session on foreign aid in February 2025 and at CPAC's summit on anti-Christian persecution in October 2025.
